    Garlic, shrimp, and Kailua pork nachos
    Janice A.

    Good food, casual and chill ambiance and fast food service. Ate lunch by beach side very calming. Got to eat some Kalua pork and had some garlic shrimp super filling - now no need for luau lol

    Cheeseburger with 2 onion rings on it was delicious! Appreciated the maui onion chips on the side. Service was quick and staff friendly.

    Chicken strips with truffle fries
    Ella C.

    I'd give this restaurant a three and a half stars. I went here twice during my vacation, each time after the beach. The location is great since it's right off of the beach, and there are quite a few tables and chairs close by (mostly all shaded!!). The workers were nice, and the food came out quickly every time. I got the chicken strips with truffle fries both times, and the fries are good, but I'm not the biggest fan of the chicken strips. They are almost completely flavorless, and you need some sort of sauce to make them taste good. They were still pretty crunchy though which is a plus. I also got the lemonade with passion fruit which was delicious. I think it's a good place to eat if you're at the beach or after you come from the beach. A bit pricey though

    Garlic shrimp

    Shrimp is insanely fishy tasting, salad sucks, and the seating area is dirty and filled with sand on the chairs

    Food is overpriced. Service was quick and everyone was super nice. I guess that's the price you pay to eat in Waikīkī!

    Pineapple slushy
    Karen Y.

    This review is only for their pineapple slushy drink. The slushy is refreshing and tart! The extra slices of raw pineapple are very juicy and flavorful. The downside is that you can't really eat the rest of the pinepple inside, and it is a bit expensive ($18 for the drink). Regardless, it's fun to try and drink on the beach!

    If you're lounging in Kuhio Beach in Waikiki Bay and in need of a snack it doesn't get much more convenient than Waikiki Beachside Bistro. Is the food a little overpriced? Sure, but you're likely in Hawaii on Vacation so go ahead and throw $20 at a Pineapple smoothie. It adds to vacation experience. The pulled pork nachos hit the spot. The pork was tender and juicy and the toppings really created rich flavor with each bite. The jalapeños were especially hot and provided a satisfying snap during each bite. Definitely try this spot if you're in the area.

    Got hungry while at the beach and wanted to get some food! I ordered the Garlic Shrimp Plate. The flavor of the shrimp with garlic and basil with the spicy garlic aioli was sooo good! I wish they gave more shrimp, lol! The plate came with rice and salad. I also go the Island surfer. I mean, when in Hawaii, why not? It was on the pricey side, but overall a nice treat!

    What do you expect to see at your typical snack bar at the beach? Burgers, fries, nachos, ice cream, right? Well, that's what you'll find here, but add to that local grindz....poké, loco moco, plate lunches, shave ice. It's good for a beach snack bar, with some tables just a stones throw away from the sand. Bistro? No. Snack bar at the beach? Yes. Order and pick up at the window. Come to quickly refuel before you return to your sun worshipping beach towel not too far away. Aloha Waikiki sun.

    I saw these pineapple drinks and knew I had to have them. I had no idea where they were from but after taking a stroll outside our hotel (moan) I saw the sign and knew our next beach day I had to have them. Manly for fun IG photos lol but they sure did look amazing. They were! So refreshing, fresh and oh so adorable!! I didn't even realize they had food!

    Trying out the food
    Staci J.

    Kapahulu burger was amazing! I thought it was a little pricey for burger & fries but it wasn't considering how good it was. The wait to receive our food was fast. We sat along the grass and ate. Perfect location for those spending the day at Waikiki beach.

    We came for the shrimp and they don't have the shrimp. We usually order thebeach side bistro luau plate. The Guy told us that they will give extra Kalua pig and sweet potato it's not even extra. It's more like rice. and I went to ask for more Lumi salmon tomato they said they don't do it, but I told him I'll pay for it if it's extra and they said oh we just don't do it for the lumi salmon so rude and also the guy that taking order he's rushing us to order. He look like he's not so happy what he's doing.

    I had a great pineapple smoothie in a pineapple at Waikiki Beachside Bistro. Fast service and fairly decent food. Conveniently right on Waikiki Beach.

    See all
